Haerin Kang a not so bright 22 year old Architecture student from Hanyang University.

When Haerin was 12 years old her dad died due to heart attack leaving all the debt to her mom, at the age of 16 her mom abandoned her for unknown reason, Haerin went home from school and saw a nice meal in their small dining table with a sorry letter and telling Haerin that the loan shark won't go after her anymore, her mom also told Haerin not to look for her but hey her mom gave Haerin a few dollars and dozen of sorry in her letter that made Haerin laughed and cry at the same time.

Haerin got mad, she cried for 17 hours, pack her things and went to Seoul with few dollars in her hand to look for a job.

Haerin started from scratch, working 3 job while going to school with no joke, she's not that bright so she need to work harder in everything. Now she's 22 living a small apartment with a single bed few cooking stuff, simple clothes, an old laptop who always rest every 2 hours for 10 minutes, second hand books and very very very old camera.

Haerin don't watch television, she doesn't even know new artists, idols she doesn't care about that at all for her it's a total waste of time, she needs to earn money and that's all that matter so she can survive college.

"Are you gonna pay or not?" Haerin said in high voice.

"Are you yelling at me?!" Danielle twitch her eyebrows while looking at this annoying cashier.

"I'm not, I'm asking you to pay! Don't you have money? Look Ms whoever you are I have so many things to do, all you just need to do is pay get your food and leave."

Danielle's eyes widened "Now you think I don't have money?" Danielle get her money on her purse and gave to Haerin. "I can even buy this store!"

"You okay?" Eunchae asked.

"Yeah, tell our driver to get us home as fast as he could before I burn that store and that tall brunette inside."

Hyein smiled "Pay up" she whispered to Minji.

Minji just shakes her head and gave Hyein 50 dollars.
